#I selfship for fun don’t take this seriously

[salted-snailz]

GUYS JUST HEAR ME OUT OKAY!?!!?!

[hoshibait]

a late night analysis of sports by beach bunny and how i associate it with ryoena. heavily inspired by that one anon a while ago and my lovely follower who made me a ryoena moodboard today, to those two, thank you <3

(please note that i’m gonna use my own interpretation of the song, i know it’s commonly associated with complicated and unrequited/ambiguous feelings but if anything i feel like that intensifies my reasoning for associating it with ryoena LMAO. also this is just for fun. don’t take it too seriously unless you wanna use this as a way to get to know my selfship more.)

anyway! onto my gay little ramble.

okay hi, i love overanalyzing things so if anything i’m using this as a way to articulate my ryoena dynamic. to start things off, let’s look over the generally accepted meaning of the song.

i basically take this as a helpless clumsy person chasing after an emotionally closed off person after a few times analyzing the lyrics. and if any of my mutuals know anything about ryoma and ena’s dynamic, that’s basically how i describe them. their whole thing is that ena’s just hopelessly smitten over this closed off stern boy and it’s ambiguous if he even returns such feelings for a while. and if he does, he’s really bad at confronting them. not only complicating things for him, but also frustrating ena in the process. basically i see this song very obviously being from ena’s perspective.

first two lines are self-explanatory if you know anything about ryoma hoshi. ryoma’s very stern and more of a loner right from the start, and ofc noticeably depressed due to trauma and other mental health issues. ena immediately takes interest in him and wants to get to know him. “i could be lonely with you.” could be them wanting to spend time with him regardless of him feeling down a lot. “why do you seem so blue?” can be taken as them still being curious about him and why the way he is.

“why are we so complicated?” is self explanatory, their relationship is odd. i often like to joke about it being “friendship goals!!!” or whatever as a sarcastic thing. although tbf their relationship is very ambiguous even when they’re intimately together. not quite romantic, but very much not platonic either.

“maybe love is overrated” is very interesting to me especially. i’m definitely just looking too much into it but i personally find it PERFECT for ena. and if anything a huge part of their character. ena’s the ultimate relationship counselor. being especially known for being good at tackling romance problems. however the bitter irony being that well, they’re very much on the aromantic spectrum, and that they heavily struggle with own romantic life, or rather lack thereof. as good as they are at handling romantic problems for other people. romance frustrates them beyond relief when it comes to themselves. that’s why it’s so agonizing when they eventually fall for ryoma. not only do they have mushy feelings for someone for the first time, but the person is, very emotionally closed off.

i absolutely love this verse. it’s a simple metaphor but it works so well. sports very much being a metaphor for the “game of love” so to speak. and again, adds onto ena’s characteristic of struggling so much with romance for themselves. “save the games for the girls on the tennis court” can refer to ena’s insecurity and frustration, basically saying “find someone else to toy with.”

and of course, the sports metaphor being perfect due to ena’s crush being a former tennis prodigy, down to the tennis court line, like cmon it’s perfect.

“say you need me, but lately, you feel unsure.” fits ryoma in this universe, so well. LMAO. even when ryoma eventually starts to return those feelings, he’s reluctant due to his fear and paranoia of letting his partner down or losing them immediately. he feels he’s not worth the energy, so he simply pushes people away.

“come on to me, i need more.” is ena’s desperation to just, help this poor guy LMAO. but also just being starved of his affection.

“if you feel broken, promise i won’t break your heart. if you shatter, i won’t let you fall apart.” is self explanatory. it’s ena’s constant reassurance and comfort for the boy. they’re basically a hypeman for him lmao, although they don’t come off too strong. they come to learn that he dislikes it when people are too intense, in a way this kinda instills a new fear into ena. with them accidentally coming off as too avoidant sometimes as a result of not wanting to overwhelm him.

“love’s a word i always hated.” just really reinforces why i associate this song so hard with ena and ryoena as a whole.

again, more of ena’s desperation just turning into frustration. calling ryoma confusing in the process. “if we keep score, bet my money that i’m losing.” i interpret as them being dejected and hopeless about the relationship.

aaaand that’s about it! this is my first time doing something like this so bear with me. hope this wasn’t too cringe lmao. my phone is about to break bc of how long this post is so i’m gonna end it here lol

[izvmimi]

a take that might raise eyebrows but i think we should respect people’s boundaries in selfships. a lot of people don’t take these all that seriously and rightfully so, these are fictional people after all, but some details and characterizations are so deeply personal that they reveal a lot about the selfshipper, things that they don’t necessarily want to share with those they’re not close to. everyone’s selfships are valid but they’re not interchangeable and people shouldn’t necessarily assume hostility from people who use the appropriate means to protect themselves.

again you have no right to antagonize or bully someone for liking their selfship but you also aren’t entitled to them talking to you about it. do it because it fulfills you but please do not force people to lie to pacify your views when they directly conflict with theirs.

tl;dr: We have the same doll. I can share my doll with you. You can share your doll with me. We naturally play in different ways. Sometimes playing with the same doll is fun and fulfilling. Sometimes you don’t like the way someone else plays with their doll. You cannot take the doll out of their hands to force them to play ‘right’ or in a way that is palatable to you. You also cannot force them to tell you exactly how they play with theirs.

Blog revival intro!

Howdy hey! I’m Synth/Zone, this is my selfship blog! Let’s start off with my other blogs:

@1nto-the-zone - my main, the place I reblog miscellaneous stuff, rarely do anything else there

@zones-spinterest-corner - my fandom/interest blog, has a lot of info and the before you follow/will block if section of the intro applies here too! Be warned that I mainly post Just Shapes and Beats/The Pink Corruption content there and rarely anything else atm so don’t follow if you won’t want to be bombarded with stuff you’re not interested in lol

Now! Onto some selfship-specific info!

- I’m fine with sharing, although I have no clue if anyone else even shares the same main f/o as me lmao

- I do not take this very seriously, it’s a fun thing and imo if it goes beyond just fun and becomes something that genuinely causes you pain it’s not a healthy coping mechanism anymore

- I may not interact with the community a whole lot and don’t care if other people don’t really interact because of that, this is my ramble space about my f/os mainly (I may participate in the occasional reblog game!)

- I think ColeyDoesThings’ video hit the nail on the head about how selfshippers can take things too far and I agree with virtually every point in it so if you don’t want to interact with someone who shares that pov then leave pls I’m not gonna change my opinions and I do not want arguments about it (if you try and start one I will block you no hesitation)

Finally, onto the main event: my f/os!!

very off base from your most recent shanks thirst but my ass is nosy buuuut say you and shanks met when he was still a roger's pirate, how do you think your friendship to lovers i mean annoyance to lovers i mean- how do you think the shenanigans would have ensued?

I mean JDNXKNED so I’m. Four yrs older than him in selfship canon which makes a childhood romance thing more finnicky,,,,,,, I imagine we’d meet at 12 and 16ish, which is around when I begin my keeper apprenticeship, and is genuinely reasonable we’d meet considering the Roger pirates canonically visited every island yk. I think it’d be something like the baby’s first crush u have on ur babysitter 😭😭😭 very Dipper and Wendy from gravity falls coded, except shanks has the confidence a preteen can only get from being raised by Gol D. Roger and I am wildly awkward abt the situation (tho I do pick up on it I’m not completely oblivious as to why he’s chasing my skirts).

I’m tempted to say Buggy would also be a bit infatuated but mostly like. Quite simply bc shanks is LMFAOOOOOO I def think of them as annoying kids and don’t take them seriously. Shanks fell hard and fast as soon as he saw me, Buggy heard him wistfully saying my name and got competitive so they devolve into fighting for my attention immediately. Roger finds it the funniest thing in the world, my teacher is less enthused by the two of them constantly getting underfoot. I have to rescue Buggy from the tide at one point and they are promptly banned from the lighthouse for distracting me when I’m supposed to be learning.

If we wanna get rlly fun w things perhaps im a bit moony-eyed over Rayleigh (Roger is too boisterous I would be terrified of him I fear) (“moony-eyed” being too awkward and shy to talk to him but quietly thinking he’s handsome and cool and asking shanks n buggy for stories about him a bunch) obviously Rayleigh takes me even less seriously than I take Shanks but I am giggling over the concept of Shanks being wildly intense abt the situation and challenging Rayleigh to a duel over it which Rayleigh accepts out of both amusement and for shanks’ training. Shanks is soundly beaten and comes crying to me w his tail between his legs to pout until I patch him up. Then buggy complains and I put a band-aid on his very much not injured cheek.

I think the romance aspect would go down very similar to normal honestly, bc it’s not happening when we’re kids obvi. The Roger pirates wouldn’t stay very long, maybe a week tops, and then I wouldn’t see shanks again for over a decade whereupon I have a “holy fuck he is Not that little kid anymore” realization when pulling him out of the water and seeing him in that soaked barely buttoned shirt………. I also assume he doesn’t remember me but he Very Much Does and seeing me even after fifteen years has him feeling like a blushing little kid w a crush again………

I don’t think he’d have an easier time winning me over bc I’d little brother zone him out of panic pls give an f in the chat (the red-haired pirates find this WILDLY hilarious) but we would have an even more explosive first kiss after i brush off his unabashed flirting one too many times 🫠

Anyway there we go! I hope that satisfies your thirst for childhood friendships LMFAOOOOOOO truthfully I don’t rlly vibe w the trope much (nothing against it obvi it’s just not rlly my thing) so this is abt as good as it gets from me 🫣

[across-every-universe]

here to drop by and say how much i love your blog!!!!! you are probably..…. THE selfshipping blog person ever, ily /p, and please never stop being cringe, it gives silly selfshipping teens like me someone to look up to

-🎸

whaaaaaat this is so sweet! i’m honestly so shocked that my posts get the (tiny) amount of traction that they do haha. as a caution tho, i don’t intent to take this blog too seriously or care too much about how often i’m online, since when i did that for past hobby-like social media it got tiring.

But also, something I don’t talk about (probably because the blog is oriented around the escapism/pretend aspect) is that selfshipping as a coping mechanism is awesome because it’s meant that it’s easier for me to make a good life for myself IRL. It’s given me a space to process bad emotions and cultivate good ones in a way that’s kind of like a a sandbox mode. And then I have the confidence and peace of mind to do things IRL that I didn’t think were even possible! I guess what I’m saying is if there’s a person out there looking up to me, remember that as fun as daydreaming and fiction is, real life can be pretty sweet too!

Oh dear that was a lot of rambling for a random anon ask 😅 thanks for dropping by and keep rockin’ guitar anon

[charliesinfern0]

CHARLIE HEY!!! sorry to hear you are/were sick :( i hope you feel better soon and that the weekend treats you well too!! for your ask game: 🍩🍦🍧🍮 for both ichi and pyro please!!!!! [ps: i wanted to thank you for motivating me to finally sit down and watch godzilla :) {shin godzilla in specific!!!} it was really really genuinely captivating and interesting in ways i did not expect and i will be trying out other movies from the franchise asap!!! seriously thank you thank you thank you. your recent fnv and tf2 posting has been extremely fun to take in as well so thank you for that as well :) goodbye!]

Selfship Ask Game

im finally getting around to answering these!! im so sorry it takes me so long to answer ask game asks i just need to think a lot about it before answering T_T (also um you can still send me asks for this ask game i love getting asks!!)

also OMG WHAT THATS SO COOL!!! im so glad I enjoyed it shin godzilla is so awesome!!!! I def recommend minus one, it’s one of my fave Godzilla movies ^_^ and I’m also glad u enjoy my fnv and tf2 posting hehe :3

🍦 - what's your f/o's favorite way to show affection? are there any little things they do to indicate their appreciation for you?

Ichimatsu likes physical affection, but is too shy to initiate it most of the time. When he has the courage to initiate it, or when Ai initiates it, he will be very clingy hehe ^_^ He mainly likes hugs and cuddling, anything where he can hold Ai close. He also likes resting his chin on her shoulder or her head lol :3 and he also shows his affection through gifts! little things like charms and paper cranes and plush keychains ^_^

Pyro is also very physically affectionate, it’s the easiest way to show their love for Janitor!! They nuzzle their heads together, and Janitor loves laying on top of them (they’re always warm!!) But they also do love to give them little gifts like drawings of them together :)

🍧 - which of you is the better chef? what's their favorite thing to make for the other?

They both aren’t completely helpless in the kitchen, but Ichimatsu is a bit better at cooking than Ai. She prefers getting premade meals and snacks from the store lol ^_^ Ichi is good at making curries and sir-fry and onigiri, which just so happen to be Ai’s favorite foods! He is also getting into baking, but he’s still getting the hang of it (their oven still smells like burnt cookies…) Once he improves though, he wants to make Ai a carrot cake (her favorite ^_^)

Janitor is definitely the better chef of the two lol no offense to Pyro but they do have a tendency to burn things ^^; Janitor is kind of the team’s unofficial chef, basically them working overtime, but they don’t mind. They do bake together though! Pyro loves making pretty cakes and cookies with them ^_^

🍮 - what's something you do that always makes your f/o smile, and/or vice versa?

Ai being cute with the stray cats they always feed together never fails to make Ichimatsu smile, while Ai catching Ichi secretly doing nice things for her (making her lunch and leaving it in the dining room, writing and pinning up a sweet note on the fridge for her to read, always washing her favorite mug so it’s ready to use whenever) always makes her smile ^_^

Janitor always smiles whenever Pyro is around, but what really makes them giddy is when they hold hands, and Pyro gives theirs a squeeze to let Janitor know that they’re listening, or that they’re with them ^_^ and Pyro always smiles when when Janitor smiles :) especially when they smile because of them!!!

🍩 - what are some irl things that remind you of your f/o?

Stray cats that I see around my neighborhood and purple flowers remind me of Ichi ^_^

And of course fire reminds me of Pyro hehe, and also cool gas masks!! And also anything Pyrovision-y like bubbles and rainbows lol

👍 📚 🖼 📌 and 🏚 for Jinx

🌽 and 🧻 for Vi

🍎 for Heimerdinger

👍 - Do they like Halloween, or do you have to force them to participate?

I think we like it equally, Jinx loves getting dressed up in fun costumes and scaring others with her pranks and I just like dressing up and listening to scary stories haha

📚 - Do either of you enjoy listening to/telling scary stories? Who does the listening and who does the telling?

We both love them a lot! I’m not great at making up stories but Jinx loves telling them and trying to scare me. We end up cuddling after because I get too scared lol

🖼 - Have you ever drawn/commissioned Halloween themed art of them before (selfship or just in general)?

No but I wish! I can’t draw and I don’t have any money but I really do want to get Art of me and her, Halloween or otherwise

📌 - Would you two be the type to make a date night out of one of those murder mystery case solving games?

God yeah, we would make a whole thing out of it. I think Jinx would end up taking it too seriously but I would be a LOT of fun

🏚 - What would you two think of a haunted house as a date?

I think it would be fun! I would probably get scared a lot more than Jinx would but it would give us an excuse to hold each other while walking through it, heh

🌽 - Have you ever gotten lost in a corn maze?

No but honestly that absolutely sounds like something we would do, Vi would probably be the one to get us out. Although if Jinx hadn’t heard from us in a while she would start blasting through the walls of the maze to find us

🧻 - Would either of you be the type to TP a house?

God, yeah. I like to imagine us traveling to Piltover JUST to TP some place, it would be a LOT of fun

🍎 - Do either of you enjoy going apple picking together?

Yeah! I bet Heimerdinger would know a lot of weird apple facts that he would tell me the entire time lol. And I would love to listen

[blackdragon-selfships]

I remembered I had this meme, so I filled it out. lol This is all my current F/Os. They’re all platonic or familial. All but Aaravos, who is bae. XD *shot*

Then there’s Viren...I really don’t know where to put him or if he should even be on any of the lists... He’s my favorite character in The Dragon Prince, but that doesn’t mean that translates to “I’d want to be at least friends with the guy (let alone maybe ship romantically w/ him), especially how he is now...” and he isn’t exactly on the level of an F/OE (Fictional Enemy, so foe, I guess) since I don’t love to hate him either like I do Lord Voldemort or most other villains I say are my favorite characters. So that’s what the “?” is there for.

Headcannons about Blinky:

@vincent-sinclair-deserved-better @myers-meadow-selfship

They surprisingly love classical music, best to play that for them if they’re getting overstimulated and need to calm down.

They like classic horror more than modern, so Creature of the Black Lagoon, Dracula…

Blinky is asexual but they do have romantic attraction. I feel like they have a preference for women, but they don’t mind men either (not gonna lie, Otis probably scares off, and by that I means kills *?cough cough* any man Blinky is interested in. He’s totally the older brother who thinks no one is good enough for them)

Blinky doesn’t like touch unless they initiate it. So whatever you do, do not like hug them from behind or something, you can and will be stabbed 😂

Blinky does go mute for long periods of time. They weren’t really allowed to talk much with their brother, so if they’re tired or in a bad mood they won’t talk. But if they desperately need to communicate they carry around a little notebook or use basic sign language which everyone in the family learns. Spaulding is actually surprisingly good at it.

On the flip side, you bring up one of their special interests and they will not shut up. Most days Otis can handle it, but sometimes he’ll just walk away mid sentence if he’s getting annoyed. He doesn’t want to hurt them by accident. Manon and Ghost are a little better with talkative Blinky.

However, Otis will use this to his advantage and use it as a torture method for victims. If Blinky is particularly hyper that day, he’ll lock them in a room with victims for hours and just let them talk and talk until the Victim is basically begging to be killed. He thinks it’s hilarious.

Blinky loves to ask Selena for card readings. She thinks it’s the coolest thing on the planet. Any magic will really have them sitting and staring in awe.

If Ghost taught them even a minute amount of magic… watch out! They are obsessed and will learn everything they can.

They love listening to ghost sing, like literally could sit there for hours with the biggest smile on their face. Sometimes they ask Ghost to sing them to sleep on a bad day.

Bonding time with Mama is Blinky pampering her. She does her hair, makeup, nails… you name it, they’ll do it for mama. They watch old 50’s and 60’s television with her, and complement her with the old timey complements.

Bonding with Spaulding is completely different. He teaches them how to protect themself. He teaches them how to properly use a knife, or turn off the safety on guns. Teaches them how to bury a body. But they do have fun too, he’ll watch old circus performances with them. Or take them to a clown convention they heard about. He likes working with them down at the gas station cause they aren’t as grumpy as Otis, and they try their best to do their job right.

Bonding with Baby is like basic teenage girl shit. Like talking about pretty boys, gossiping about Otis. Baby loves to dress them up more feminine sometimes.

Bonding with Manon is more calm. They don’t really do much besides read together in her room. Or Blinky will ask a bunch of questions about random things and Doe Eyes will try her best to answer. Blinky totally takes naps with their head on her lap. And Manon will yell at Otis if he wakes them up. They don’t sleep often, so Doe Eyes takes their sleep schedule very seriously.

Doe will also yell at Blinky if they won’t go to sleep. Otis is not above slipping sleepy pills into their food or drink to make it happen. He does the same for Ghost if they’re keeping Blinky up, homeboy ain’t playing no games.

Blinky actually doesn’t do much killing, at least not by themselves. They prefer to just watch, or help with the disposal process. But they’re really only kill if it’s self defence, if someone says something about their autism (which the others will kill for too) or if they say something or try to attack the family. And if that last one happens, expect it to be brutal. They will show no mercy and torture that fucker for days.

But typically you can find them kicking their feet on the bed while Baby or Otis are with a victim. They’ll keep quiet and only speak of one of them asks them a question. Or to offer more ideas. They’ll also totally babysit a victim to make sure they don’t run if someone gets called away to deal with something else.

They are not allowed to be in the kitchen alone. Between how clumsy they are, and their high pain tolerance, it’s not a good combo. They’ll burn themselves on the oven or stove, cut their fingers with knives, spill hot water on themself. And after they forgot to put water in their microwave Mac and cheese once and set the whole thing on fire, Otis made an executive decision to not let them anywhere near the kitchen. They are however allowed to make coffee or tea as long as someone’s in the room with them.

Blinky is physically 18, but they act more 15-16ish. A bit of stunted growth from their autism. They’re also like tiny af, like they are 4’11 on a good day. They weigh like max 110 lbs and have a crazy metabolism. Otis once woke up on the middle of the night to see them devouring like half the fridge. Man was bewildered, where the fuck does that food go? They probably wear platforms, or if they want to feel talk, Tiny just carries them around. Like homie just Simba’s them.

Blinky is comfortable with She/Her pronouns so long as it’s only the family issuing them. If a stranger calls them that, she will bite them with no hesitation.

Blinky likes to smoke weed but not drink. And they usually only smoke at night after all the chores are done, so they can try to unwind.

Road Trip

Pairing: Snotlout Jorgenson x Nic Blake

A/N: This takes place during the third movie when they’re all leaving Berk. I wanted a cute little fic with a little couple bickering

Tag List: @sable-myers @fangedwife @hyperionshipping @the-dark-fae-and-her-fos @belcanto-selfships @victorvampir @licensedcrime

They had been flying for a few hours and it felt like the ocean wasn’t ending. They had seen nothing but blue water for miles, the occasional Scauldron or Thunderdrum but other than that nothing. No great waterfall. The Light Fury Hiccup went on about made an appearance, and much to everyone’s amusement she knocked him off Toothless who managed to catch Hiccup. But that had been hours ago.

Cece was obviously a little irritated, grunting slightly and shaking. She wanted to fly off and have a little fun, but Nic was keeping her on course. The Changewing was bored, and honestly so was Nic. She scratched at Cece’s neck gently.

“Are you bored, girl?” She asked.

Cece whined in response, giving the best nod a dragon could.

“Okay, how about this? You drop me off with Hookfang and you can have a little fun. Does that sound good?” Nic asked, and Cece roared excitedly. “Just stay close to the group. I don’t want you wandering off too far, okay?”

Cece hummed and moved just above Hookfang. Nic unfastened the straps that attached to her belt. Hiccup added a seatbelt to her saddle after he witnessed Nic fall off Cece three times in one day. For an entire week.

Once the straps were removed, she hopped off Cece and onto Hookfang’s back, just behind the saddle Snotlout was on. Nic waved to Cece who purred happily before diving down towards the water. Nic laughed before leaning over the back of the saddle, taking hold of some of Snotlout’s hair and twirling it on her finger.

“Hiya,” she grinned at him.

“Hey, babe,” he looked at her over his shoulder. “What brings you here?”

“It’s been a long flight, Cece needed to have a little fun, I’ve been missing my boyfriend,” she purred.

“And your boyfriend has been missing you. But y’know, it’s a lot more comfortable up here.” He smirked at her.

She rolled her eyes playfully. “Is this your way of getting me to sit in your lap?”

“Is it working?”

“Yes, it is.” She giggled and climbed over the saddle before placing herself in his lap. Nic leaned back and nuzzled his cheek. “I always love the view up here.”

“Yeah,” he said in agreement, though his eyes weren’t on the horizon. They were on her. “Best view.”

“We should do this more often. I don’t think I’ve ever flown with you before.”

“Do all those times I’ve caught you from falling count?”

She hummed as she thought. “I don’t think so.”

“Then no, you’ve never flown with me.”

“Let’s do this again.”

“I’m all for it, baby.”

The next few were spent making small conversation or sitting in comfortable silence. They thought the trip would never end, and it looked that way. The way the ocean went, they weren’t sure if they’d see land for hours.

At some point Nic realized she hadn’t seen Cece in a bit. Immediately worry gripped her as she sat forward, trying to catch sight of her dragon. She could see Cece above, and she wasn’t on either side.

“Did she cloak? Cece! Seasons!” Nic called out. “I told her not to stray.”

“Oh yeah, it must suck when she disappears on you without warning,” Snotlout goaded.

She lightly glared at him over her shoulder. “If this is about the other night–”

“I just thought you’d be staying the night, but obviously I was wrong and there was miscommunication–”

“I was on patrol that night, you knew this!” She grumbled.

“Patrol, huh? What a great job at that you did,” he said, mildly sarcastic.

“Are you blaming me for Grimmel sneaking into Berk? Seriously?” She rolled her eyes. “That’s it— Cece!” Nic called for her dragon and started to move to Hookfang’s side, but Snotlout quickly grabbed her waist and pulled back.

“I didn’t mean it like that!”

“It sure sounded like you did,” she crossed her arms and continued to look for Cece. There was a grunt from above and Cece appeared, almost grinning at her rider. Nic let out a sigh of relief at the sight of her dragon.

Snotlout tilted her chin so she would look at him. “What I meant was that I think your time would’ve been better spent with me.”

She rolled her eyes. “You’re so needy.”

“Only for your attention.”

Nic sighed. “I’m sorry I snapped. We’ve been flying for hours, we’re tired and hungry. How about at our first stop we share a tent?”

“Really?” He asked excitedly. “You mean it?”

She nodded. “First stop. Let’s keep the bickering to a minimum though. I actually want to enjoy sleeping next to you.”

“Oh trust me, babe. You’ll enjoy it.”

“And I hope you don’t mind Cece probably joining in,” Nic smirked. “She’s a cuddler.”

Snotlout groaned. “Can’t she sleep outside with Hookfang?”

“She’ll sneak in anyway.”

“We’ve gotta have a rule of no dragons in the house.”

Nic paused in surprise before looking at him. “What?”

“Huh?”

“You said we should have a rule of no dragons in the house.” She stared at him.

“Um… yeah?”

“Are you– Do you want to live together?”

“I, uh, yes?”

Nic smiled softly and leaned up to kiss his cheek. “I’d like that too.”

“Land!” Someone shouted.

Nic and Snotlout looked ahead, and sure enough there was a beautiful massive island.

“Alright everyone, we’re heading there!” Hiccup called out.

“Cece!” Nic called, and the Changewing flew beside Hookfang. Grinning at her boyfriend, Nic kissed him quickly before moving under Hookfang’s horn and jumping onto Cece’s back. She looked back at Snotlout. “Race ya!” She shouted, her and Cece taking off far ahead of the group.

“Oh, you’re on!” Snotlout shouted back, Hookfang racing forward to catch up. “Last one there is rotten yak milk!”

“Snotlout! Nic!” Hiccup called after them but shook his head when they didn’t listen. They simply continued towards the island.

Jotunnary | Day 10 - A wedding

Pairing: Loki x masc!reader

Word count: 500

A/N: Yes I am also a Johnlock enthusiast, how did you know. Also, for the sake of the gif, let's pretend like Loki cut his hair for the wedding. And Loki will always have a sweet tooth in my headcanon, okay? I love him.

“I can’t believe he’s actually marrying a mortal”, muttered Loki over a glass of wine and a mouthful of wedding cake.

Thor’s wedding party was the most unbearable thing he had to attend in the whole week, and he has had to attend a long list of Avengers business —even earlier in that same day.

Still, nothing was as annoying as having to wear a white shirt with his nothing-near-dark suit, nodding at everything the people said. He had gotten his expectations up when he heard his brother say it was a "very dark attire, much like the ones you enjoy wearing". This wasn't dark. This was light grey, much to his discomfort.

“Jane is cool, though”, said Jane’s friend and scientist —Norns, there were at least twenty scientists around him at that moment— Darcy Lewis. She was also accompanied by a gentleman that didn’t escape Loki’s eyes. He was attractive for a mortal —if he was one. And Loki marveled at the thought that he had trouble recognizing whether the man was a Midgardian or not.

“That woman slapped me in the face”, said the man. “Twice”.

“She slapped me too”, said Loki, still with cake on his mouth. Gods, the cake was good. “I don’t think it’s a bad attribute of hers, though. She speaks up”.

“I’d rather people speak up with their mouths, if possible”, he rolled his eyes, and Loki smirked. He was gonna have a little bit of fun at the party, after all —at least it seemed so. “I work with her in the lab. She’s pretty alright with that brain”, he said, obviously kidding, and then added, “now, in all seriousness, she’s the brightest woman in the world”.

“You work at a lab, then? That sounds boresome”, said Loki, earning a laugh. “What’s your name, Sir?”.

“I’m Y/N. You’re Loki, am I right?”.

“How did you know?”.

“You’re the most bitter in the whole party”.

“I don’t understand if you two are insulting each other or making friends”, said Darcy, sipping champagne as if her life depended on it.

“I’m flirting”, said the man, and Loki’s smirk widened at your boldness.

“We have similar ways, I can see”, he said smoothly.

Darcy left the men speaking right after that, and they kept talking about Thor, and Jane, and the ostentatious wedding; and after that they drifted to books, and music, and cultural differences between Asgard and Midgard.

To say Loki was fascinated by him was an understatement. Little did he know, the man had the exact same thought.

“Ah, Loki! I see you met Jane’s good old friend! You know, he reminds me of you”, said Thor, walking up to the pair after a few too many little bottles of Asgardian liquor. “I think you two should go get something for dinner together, get to know each other a little. And who knows, maybe I’m not the only Odinson who’ll get married after all!”, he half joked, and Loki chuckled, blushing slightly.

“Thor, for Fuck’s sake, go get your face washed”.

“Besides, I’m not in for marriage”, said the man.

“Oh, me neither”, nodded Loki. He waited for a moment before offering his arm and asking, “either way, dinner?”.

“Starving”, smiled the man, taking his arm and walking out of the party together.

The Calling...for spooky games

Inspired by the amazing selfship drawing @erupan​ did for me. Eru you lovely human bean. 

I also love the idea that Kid is terrible with anything horror. 

“I’m here!” Hana called, closing the door to the large group house of Kid and his friends. Taking her boots off in the hall, she poked her head into the living room where Kid was wrestling with a bundle of wires. Today was their weekly date evening. Kid had mentioned something about games and she remembered seeing a wii last time she was here and had brought a few games of her own “Do you need a hand?” she asked,

“”How did this even happen?!” he huffed, dropping the bundle of wires to the floor. Hana chuckled and leant down to plant a kiss into his hair,

“Maybe because you threw all your wires into a box again..” she hummed, kneeling beside him to untangle the mass of wires. “What were you trying to plug in anyway?”

“Borrowing Wire’s console..I got us a game to play..” he said, reaching for the case on the table. “Looks cool right? Zombies and shit.” he grinned excitedly, holding up the resident evil case. 

I’m so bad at zombie games..they are fun though.

Hana nodded and plugged the console in “there we go, all set.” She smiled. “I brought some games too and snacks..I baked those gingerbreads you liked-” Kid’s eyes lit up and he pulled Hana onto his lap to hug tightly, “Kiiidd.” she laughed as he nuzzled her neck playfully. 

“I’ll make coffee.” Kid lifted her onto the cough effortlessly “Oh..Killer baked too..” he added quietly, watching her out of his peripheral vision and seeing her smile excitedly. Once they were sitting comfortably on the sofa with drinks and home baked snacks in abundance, they loaded up the game. 

“I’ve only played the old ones..” Hana admitted beside him handing him the controller, “your house, you get player one first and we switch when you die..that's the rule.” she stated seriously, Kid shook his head in amusement she has such cute quirks. Once he started played heavily focused on the game 

this is fine.  He cheered himself on internally but his whole body jolted when a pair of arms slid around his bicep. Glancing down at his little orange haired pumpkin clinging to him, her eyes focused on the screen in front of them, his heart swelled like his ego. 

I..make her feel safe? Of course I do!

Though that didn’t last long..Kid’s blood ran cold and his heart was running a marathon in his chest, he jumped and fumbled the controller when a horde of zombies ran at him. 

Load from last save point?

Kid didn’t even look at her when he relinquished the controller. She laughed “I doubt I’ll do much better.” she added. Kid threw his arm protectively over her small shoulders and offered a cheeky grin. 

“Don’t worry, I got ya.” he winked, making her blush. She’s doing better already… when the game started to get intense Kid jolted and grimaced and ended up resting his head on hers hiding the game behind her soft orange hair.

“Kid are you- ARGH! NO!” Hana’s sudden yelling caught him off guard as she pulled the control closer to her to try and fight off the horde better “I died…” she sighed, hanging her head in shame. “Want to try another game?” she offered, recoiling quickly. Kid nodded and tousled her hair.

“You did good.” he nodded proudly “what else did you bring?” Hana moved from his arm and rummaged into her tote bag and produced two games for the wii. Kid felt his eye twitch when he looked at the covers. 

Ju-on fright simulator….The calling….

“They’re horror games!” she explained excitedly, plopping down beside him turning them over to look at the back “This one uses the wii remote as a phone! And you get calls from the ghosts and then they come and find you and you have to run away! Oh and the ju-on is the grudge film. It’s so scary!” she rambled holding them up to him with a bright smile. “Which one would you like to play first?” she asked. Kid reluctantly glanced between the two games and pointed at the ju-on. 

Fright simulator...simulators are stupid right? And I don’t remember the film being..great..

Hana put the game in grabbing the controllers and ran towards the door switching the lights off. 

“What are you doing?!” he asked, his voice holding a minor crack to it. 

“Oh. These are so much more fun in the dark. It’s atmospheric.” she explained, not switching the light on and carefully making her way back to him. 

Is she a masochist?! Oh shit..

“You go first..it’s your game.” Kid stated, not wanting to even humor this game. Hana nodded and started the game, it took to the first jump scary for Kid to lift Hana onto his lap wrapping his arms around her waist. This was the most apt spot for cuddlings and hiding the stupid game with her hair. 

“You won’t be able to play like that…” she chuckled. 

I have no intention of playing this...what maniac willing plays this? He glanced down at the pumpkin in his arms grimacing, her hands trembling slightly as she moved the camera around the abandoned factory. My maniac apparently.  He smirked but almost jolted out of his skin as there was a loud thud followed by an unnerving groaning and Hana yelped and flailed the wii remote around willing the player to run faster. 

“Nooooo!!!!” Hana soon sighed with relief as she had outrun the terror in the lift. “Safe-” The living room door slammed open and they both yelled in fright. Kid’s arms tensed around her, pulling her closer into his chest. 

“What are you two doing?” the light flicked on revealing Killer, Heat and Wire staring at them with a smirk on their faces. Hana started laughing nervously,

“Playing the Ju-on game! Sorry Wire I forgot to ask if I could use the wii.” 

Wire nodded, “I’ve wanted to play that mind if we join?” 

Kid huffed nonchalantly “Gladly..” he mumbled. As long as he didn’t have to play this ridiculous game. Kid caught Killer’s eyes who looked at him smuggly, Kid looked away suddenly. 

“How did you get Kid to play this?” Killer asked, taking his spot in his usual arm chair “Kid’ so bad at horror anything.” he teased.

“But..Kid was the one who suggested spooky games. They’re my speciality...well kind of..I’m really bad at them but they’re so fun!” she rambled nervously, handing the controls to Wire who sat down on the floor to carry on the game.

“We have to play this next.” Wire stated seriously, holding up The Calling “this game is so expensive. I have to play it!”

“Of course!!” Hana exclaimed excitedly, punching the air. 

Kid sighed deeply and kept his grip on Hana, resting his chin on her head reluctantly watching the screen.

So much for date night….this is okay too though…best write off sleep though..

Uhhh,,, self indulgent kokichi x izumi headcanons no one asked for,,,,

I made these,,, strictly for my own selfshipping purposes,,,,

To start off, Izumi is a very calm and collect person. She's very genuine, but since she's the ultimate chess player, she's extremely calculated in her actions.

She's also extremely tall, like 6"1, and she towers almost everyone besides Gonta.

She's a lot like Shuichi in a way, only the thing is, she sees everyone as a piece on the chess board.

All these qualities, Kokichi initially found boring. However, in order to mess with her, he challenged her to a chess match.

As he began to get bored of her, Izumi used his boredom against him. That's what he found interesting. He learned that Izumi hates to lose.

Not that he was even close to winning, but there was a sudden glint in her eye, when she was offered a challenge.

'If she saw everyone like a chess piece, then she's most likely a pawn herself.' Kokichi thought.

Surely, he could use this to his advantage.

I should say, Kokichi doesn't really gain this interest until after trial 1. Once, Kaede is executed, Izumi starts taking the game a lot more seriously.

He starts bugging Izumi more and more, not that she doesn't mind, she just doesn't understand why he would want to hang out with her of all people.

Soon enough, she figures out his little plan. She can't help, but chuckle to herself.

"I think I've figured it out."

"Oh, figured what out?"

"Your little scheme."

She smiled, wildly.

"You want a rematch. You want to see me lose."

Kokichi smirked.

"Well, well, looks like you figured it out, Izzy. You are good, but I don't want just a rematch."

She raised an eyebrow, towering over Kokichi.

"Oh?"

"I don't want to see you lose. I wanna see you participate. I see how you distance yourself from the others. How you look down on them, wondering which one will go next. You're smart, Izumi. But, you're still a bumbling idiot in the scheme of things."

She chuckled, smiling like a mad man. She absolutely adored this challenge. Finally, things where going to get interesting.

"So, what's your offer, Ouma?"

"Let's play a game of chess. I already have the upper hand, Izumi. My Rook is already in motion."

This little game was going to be so much fun.

I’m taking a break from Tumblr but I literally signed in one (1) time on an incognito tab to make this post because a friend showed me a post about like. Everyone should support unpopular selfshippers and people who feel neglected or ignored. Like people are feeling invalidated and like their ships aren’t valid, and deleting their blog bc they didn’t get interacted with. 

And I just like, have feelings about this? Because like YEAH valid, it sucks that people feel left out! As an artist, I know it sucks to like produce content or have things in your head you wanna share and just not get interaction. I feel for these people, I do.

...but selfship blogs are supposed to be for you. You shouldn’t base your self worth or emotional well being on how many asks or notes you get about you and your faves. Like you shouldn’t be making selfship blogs and curating content of your faves and your inserts for anyone but yourself. 

This isn’t a popularity game, and I know some blogs are pretty popular and get asks and reblogs a lot or whatever but like, that’s just... idk. Good for them. It’s not what should matter in self insert culture. You should be making content for yourself. You should continue making good content/finding good content of your fave because it’s for you to enjoy. It’s supposed to feel fun and nice to imagine yourself with your faves.

I get feeling alone or left out, but please, don’t base your self worth on how many notes you get or how many asks you receive. C’mon. That is such an unhealthy mindset, and I’m speaking as someone who used to think exactly like this. 

Selfshipping is a self care thing and if it’s so imperative that other people validate the feelings you have for a character, so much so that you will delete your blog over not getting outsider validation for how you feel about your faves, maybe seriously consider stepping away from the community for a bit, because it shouldn’t be damaging your emotional well being that much.

Sorry if this post comes off as abrasive, I just had really big feelings about this and I really really feel super concerned that there are people in this community who have legit deleted their blog because outsider interaction made them feel like their selfship was not valid. That’s wild to me.
